2017/12/12 V&A Into the Woods

Bae Bien-U’s works are on display in Gallery 38A titled Into the Woods: Trees in Photography.

Trees have long been a source of inspiration for artists. They can evoke a primal sense of wonder and the strong patterns of their branches, bark and leaves consistently offer visually arresting subjects. This display explores the diverse representation of trees in photography, with works by 40 photographers, including Paul Strand, Robert Adams and Henri Cartier-Bresson.
